King Township secures total of $2.7 million in naming rights for the new, multi-use recreation facility, slated to open in September which will go towards future needs and maintenance of the facility.

The new multi-use recreation facility will now be known as the Zancor Centre for the next 15 years, following a generous $1.5 million contribution from Zancor Homes. Ten-year partnerships have also been secured for the naming rights of the ice pads, aquatic centre and athletic centre:

• JTF Homes Arena: Ice Pad 1 (home rink of the King Rebellion Junior A Team)
• The Country Day School Arena: Ice Pad 2
• Municipal Maintenance Athletic Centre: the artificial turf fieldhouse with running track, and a multi-use community space
• Aqua Tech Solutions Aquatic Centre: the six-lane lap pool and leisure pool

 In recognition of its namesake and the organization’s volunteers who have served the King community since 1917, one community room in the Zancor Centre will be named the King City Lions Community Room and another named the Gord Orr Community Room, after a charter member of the club.

With the opening of the new ice rinks, user groups of the King City Lions Arena will relocate to the Zancor Centre.  For more information see here.
